That is the great thing about homeschooling, isn't it? We can be flexible. Just when I was about to start this blog with what we do in a "normal" day, everything became "abnormal". My eldest son was diagnosed with  OCD. We are very hopeful and have become well informed, well read and found support. This involves daily trips to therapy, 45 minutes away.

The days seem to blur with trips to the doctors' office(s)and therapy sessions for our son...Its all seeming to run together--I am trying to remember what day it is! Our homeschooling "schooling"  is on the BACK BURNER (I did flashcards with my youngest in the waiting room--doesn't that count as a day of kindergarten??)

Our regular routine went out the window, and, without realizing it, we have become "unschoolers"! Thats just fine. We are listening to the same Shel Silverstein tape in the car from  "Where the Sidewalk Ends" over and over...the kids are memorizing the entire tape and love the familiar poems. The most important thing now is the therapy and the help for the family. So, how does it all work? We are figuring that out along the way.

I am very hopeful and enjoy those small moments, like seeing my second son, who has recently learned to knit, knitting away at the doctor's office  and finding a yummy fudge candy store near the doctor's office, and laughing with the kids while we pick out a treat.

Good night!
